| Title: Samaria e Samaritani in Egitto Secondary Title: Aegyptus Volume: 76 Pages: 81-92 Type: Journal Article Year: 1996 Abstract: Hilhorst, A: in: JSJ 30.2 (1999), 209: "There are virtually no papyri mentioning Samaritans in Ptolemaic Egypt. Since we know, especially from Josephus, that many Samaritans settled there, we have to account for that silence, This may be done in a double way. (1) They may have had reasons to conceal their Samaritan identity. (2) For Greeks and Macedonians it may have been difficult to discern between Samaritans and the very similar but much more numerous Jews in Egypt".
